(May be suitable for use in other assays to be determined by the end user.)
1. Splice variants: Alternative splicing may create different sized proteins from the same gene.
2. Relative charge: The composition of amino acids may affects the charge of the protein.
3. Post-translational modification: Phosphorylation, glycosylation, methylation etc.
4. Post-translation cleavage: Many proteins are synthesized as pro-proteins, and then cleaved to give the active form.
5. Polymerization of the target protein: Dimerization, multimerization etc.
Store at 2-8ºC for one month.
Aliquot and store at -80ºC for 12 months.
Stability Test: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37°C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
Accurate Molecular Mass: 44kDa as determined by SDS-PAGE reducing conditions.
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the sodium glucose cotransporter family. The encoded protein is responsible for the uptake of iodine in tissues such as the thyroid and lactating breast tissue. The iodine taken up by the thyroid is incorporated into the metabolic regulators triiodothyronine (T3) and tetraiodothyronine (T4). Mutations in this gene are associated with thyroid dyshormonogenesis 1.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]
Uniprot Description
SLC5A5: Mediates iodide uptake in the thyroid gland. Defects in SLC5A5 are the cause of thyroid dyshormonogenesis 1 (TDH1). A disorder characterized by the inability of the thyroid to maintain a concentration difference of readily exchangeable iodine between the plasma and the thyroid gland, leading to congenital hypothyroidism. Belongs to the sodium:solute symporter (SSF) (TC 2.A.21) family.

Product Notes
The NIS slc5a5 (Catalog #AAA2031325) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E. coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Sodium Iodide Symporter can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Positive Control, Immunogen, SDS-PAGE, WB. (May be suitable for use in other assays to be determined by the end user.) . Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the NIS slc5a5 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Sodium Iodide Symporter, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
